New club in Georgia looking for members and competitions

and members too! I am a grad student at Georgia Southern University and I have just started a badminton club. We have a range of experience and level of play. We are looking for members/players and competitions. We meet in the Hanner Complex Old Gym from 8-10pm on Thursday nights. If anyone needs directions/more information, please let me know! I have heard there are clubs at Georgia Tech and University of Georgia, but I'm having a hard time finding information. Our members are very interested in traveling and competing, but I can't find information on competitions in Georgia. Little help!

Can you describe the features of your facility (eg/ # of courts, type of floor, lighting, height of the ceiling, etc) so that potential players will have a better feel for your club and then may be interested in joining or dropping in.

More info

Good idea...

We have six courts, but we usually use three so there's room for more players. Wood gym floor, so it isn't slipperly or anything. Honestly, the lighting is not the greatest- the shuttle gets lost in the lights many a time. But it's bearable. The ceiling is pretty high, but there a lot of shuttles stuck up there. It's a really nice gym but not state-of-the-art. Plenty of room and there aren't any other sports going on that would be a distraction.

I am interested in playing with your new club. I live in the Atlanta area and am looking for somewhere to play. Can you tell me where the Hanner Complex Gym is located? Do you have room for 2 more players?
Thanks

Yes, of course we have room. but, my club is in statesboro, 3+ hours south of atlanta. If you're still interested, we play in the RAC building now (on campus at Georgia Southern), Tues/Thursday nights from 9 to midnight. I know there are clubs in Atlanta though.

GSU Badminton Club

There aren't any trainers, but I teach the badminton PE and there are some experienced players that would love to work with you. There is no fee. Our practice times are Tuesday/Thursday 5-7pm and Friday at 2pm. We meet on court 3 of the big gym in the RAC.

There is an interest meeting on Thursday August 24th at 4:30pm on court 3 in the RAC. We would love you to come by. You're welcome to play on Tuesday night before the meeting takes place of course.

I know that there is a shortage of places to play in Atlanta but I just wanted to see how many people out there will be interested in playing at Emory University? There is a possibility that we will be able to bring in non-Emory student/staff to play in the center. Once I know how many people are committed in playing at a regular basis I will arrange something for everyone.
